This was fruitful cooperation.
It wasn’t enough for Jennifer Lopez to be a trendsetter in the fashion, music, and movie industries. The multi-talented persona managed to affect the field of information technologies as well.
The executive chairman of Google, Eric Schmidt, said the big company was inspired to create the Google Image search because of JLo’s green dress. As the representative mentioned in his essay years ago, after the unique appearance, almost everyone was trying to find pictures of the diva.
To make it easier, Google came up with the idea of a picture search.
“People wanted more than just text. This first became apparent after the 2000 Grammy Awards, where Jennifer Lopez wore a green dress that, well, caught the world’s attention. At the time, it was the most popular search query we had ever seen. But we had no surefire way of getting users exactly what they wanted. JLo wearing that dress. Google Image Search was born.”
